"Mom?"

I called out in the middle of the night realizing mom wasn't with me in bed. I sat up from the bed and slowly slip out of our room and venture through the long dark corridor to find my mother when I heard muffled voices inside one of the rooms.

I slowly walk there and since it was slightly open already, I took a sneak peak in it while still rubbing my sleepy eyes and found my mom and another person with him.

'Its the lady, why are they here?' I asked myself.

"Stay away from him as much as possible." Lady Miers stated in a calm voice.

"But my lady, I'm master's personal butler. I-"

"Then think of something you can do to avoid being with him! You whore!" She exclaimed and backhanded my mom.

I gasps quietly and stumbled back on my own and before I knew it, I ran as fast as I can back to our room.

Mom? What did my mom do? Why did she do that to mom? So many questions, I can't answer......

Splash!

I woke up from my unconscious state when a bucket of cold water was splashed at me making me shiver in cold. I slowly open my eyes awake and tried to move my body but only to grimace when I realize both of my hands were tied tightly on a pole on the center of the room.

"Well well, the pregnant rat is awake." I heared her voice echo making me whipped my head at her.

She sat a few good meters away from me. Her clothes were different now, and was wearing a white longsleeve shirt tuck in her skinny black jeans and some black high cut pointed boots.

"Why are you doing this?!" I exclaimed.

Anger evident on my voice. I can't have a miscarriage at this time of hour or even death. What should I do? Her laughed broke my thoughts making me looked at her with a glare.

"Simple. I want my happy family back without any rat like you in it. Good that your mother's dead so your the only one left now. If you die then, everything will be back to normal. Don't you think Lay?" She stated in a menacing voice.

"What did my mom ever do to you?! You fucking whore!" I practically yelled.

And before I could react, she quickly stood up from her chair and her hand came flying, landing on my left cheek with a loud slap.

"What a wonderful feeling of slapping a rat like you." She exclaimed. My cheek still burning from the pain of her slap.

"We used to be a perfect family. My husband loved me and so do I but when Kayne was appointed to be my husband's personal butler, everything changed. My husband wouldn't even have spare time with me because he always went on a business trip with your whore of a mother." She stated with grief in her voice.

"Because of the lack of attention, I decided to play around with Delion, my husband's best friend. Well, Alexander caught me one time with him, and guess why he didn't told my dear husband?"

I glared at her, agitation etched on my face.

"I know Alexander too well. That's why its easy to tell him that 'if he spit one word to his daddy, then his love of life, which happens to be you, will break every little tiny bones of his body until he dies basking with his own blood.' Wonderful plan is it?"

I was shocked. She told his own son with those kind of words and she used me as bait. How could she.

"You know? You and your mom was supposed to fled off the mansion without my husband's knowledge but was caught off, and was told of a false lie which is that your dad had fled off with another woman, bringing your twin with him."

"Kayne instantly believe it and broke off crying. That's how my husband loved Kayne that he's willing to destroy your dad's image so he could keep Kayne to him. And me? I was forgotten. And the day came where my husband came home but sadly, he wasn't breathing anymore. And so do as Kayne." She laughed.

"How dare you!"

"Sshhh.... I'm not done. Dear Lay..." She smiled, a sinister one making the hair on my nape rise.

I just wanna rip her hair out of her scalp right now. I tugged at my rope realizing it was a futile move to do since I was tied tightly.

"Uh uh uh, I have a few more surprises to uncover for you Lay. So you can sit back and relax." She stated in front of my face and smiled. She motioned one of the men around the room. One man, must be in his mid twenties walk up to her and handed her somewhat a remote and faced me again.

"Watch Lay how the world is full of lies." She exclaimed and flipped the remote on. A blinding light in front of me immediately sparked up making me closed my eyes and reopen them again only to reveal the most heart wrenching sight in front of me.

"See Lay? See that?! See how every little promise turns out to be lies."

"I love you Lay, one hundred times infinity and beyond."

All my life, all I wanted to have is someone to love me more than the love everyone around me had shown. But realizing that I will never ever get it, I closed that door. But as Alexander came in the front door, he came knocking down all the walls that had caged me and free me from the world that I had previously believe in.

But right now, the caged that was supposed to be buried deep down had slowly formed once again, creating a strong constriction inside my chest. I broke out into tears, but a silent one, but deep down I was aching. I looked at my stomach and I just realize, I was pregnant.

"M-my b-baby." I croaked out silently while letting my years flow down like a waterfall from my eyes. I caressed it with my shaking hands as I try to composed myself but was failing miserably.

She laugh.

"Men, bring this rat to the slaughter room." I gasps and immediately whipped my head to her.

"Please... please... don't do this. I have my baby I'm carrying please?" I practically begged as they begun unlatching me from the pole and drag me out the room.

"My lady! Please! I-I beg you, I can't die! I ha-have my son I'm still carrying, please?"

I didn't put up much fight since I don't know what to think anymore. All there is swimming inside my brain is the safety of my unborn child. They were still dragging me through the hallway and I think I'm beginning to loose my life.

I don't know what to think anymore. I just don't know.

We entered a room and it smelled like stench of dried blood inside making me wanna puke but I held it in. They placed me in a chair and tied both my wrist and ankle making me unable to move every part of my limb, but I don't tink I can even put off a fight, I'm pregnant, if I do any risky move, it'll result to miscarriage.

"Oh! One last thing Lay." She chirped making me look at her blankly but with eyes still overflowing with tears.

"Guess who killed your mother Lay?" She laughed as confusion etched my face. She laugh more before she finally exclaimed.

"Me! I also involved my husband with it since if I let him lived, he will just mourne on your mom's grave forever, so I killed both of them. It's like hitting two birds with one stone. Surprising right?" She laughed again before walking out.

"You crazy woman! I'm gonna kill you!" I hissed, clenching and grinding my teeth together in anger.

"Too bad, you'll join them sooner! Ta ta Lay! Say hi to my husband for me in hell!" She waved as she walked out the room leaving me with other few people around the room.

Everything was a lie?

Those were the words that kept swimming in my head tho and fro. I can't think of anything good to do since I was numb all over because of the sudden shock I felt when I slowly let every word sink in inside my head.

Yesterday, I was having one of my best times but now, I had woken up from my wonderful dream and reality came crashing down on me.

Everything was a big fat lie?

A lie?

I cried, and cried and cried. But I know my tears wouldn't save me, because they were just tears. If they could drown everything here then that would be a miracle. I don't know what to think anymore, I'm slowly slipping away from my normal state and anytime now, maybe I could lose my sanity.

What about my baby?

He's not even here in the world and before he could be born, he'll slowly slip out from my hands and die. He's my first born, I just can't have the risk of him dying without seeing the world.

The world, the world has turned its back on me, leaving me suffering on an unknown road to nothingness.

"You have to be extra quite there so there won't be any pain that'll hurt you. Okay?" One of the man who's going to kill me snickered. But I remained mentally and physically blank.

I heard a cart being rolled up to my direction and stop just a few meters from me. The cart was covered with a white cloth, but I already knew what was hidden underneath those sheets.

Guns and Knives

They're going to torture me to death. I cried. Is this just how my life would totally end? Full of lies and no love. My son, my unborn son wouldn't even have the chance of seeing me and his dad.

Dad.

The thought of that had me thinking of Alexander. He said he loved me. He even vowed it in front of me and in the eyes of many but what happened? He also betrayed and lied to me.

He said that I was the best thing he had but why did he let another woman touched him when I wasn't around? He said he already cut his ties with Lady Meghan and just a few hours ago, I just witnessed him dry humping her to no end, making my heart cringe with an indescribable ache. How could he...?!

If he didn't loved me after all those, he should have confessed to me sooner before he decided to tie himself with me. I loved him too much that I didn't even felt the pain of each knife they pierce in me. You know what hurts most?

My heart...

My aching heart...

I cried more and more, the room filling with all my sobs. The people around me kept laughing, as they thought their torture was making me cry but it wasn't. It was my heart which was hurting.

I shouldn't have loved him. I should have tamed my heart not to open the door to my desires or else, it'll ruin me and now that I let it open, everything came crashing down. Now, I have to face everything, but how can I face it when it was so sudden and it hurts so much that I don't even want to move, I just wanna cry over and over and over again.

I love you Alexander...

"That's enough."
